Madhan Sundararajan Devaki updated HADOOP-11747:
------------------------------------------------
Description:
SELINUX was introduced to bring in a robust security management in Linux OS.
In all distributions of Hadoop (Cloudera/Hortonworks/...) one of the
pre-installation checklist items is to disable SELINUX in all the nodes of the
cluster.
Why not re-use the security model offered by SELINUX setting instead of
re-inventing from scratch through Sentry/Knox/etc...?
